I own nothing besides the plot. YAY~

Link sat down after saving the land of Hyrule for around the hundredth time, of course he himself only saved it once, he had past lives and kept getting reincarnated and it was starting to irk him. He couldn't actually remember anything about his past lives but their souls were there, in the back of his mind. He didn't actually KILL Ganondorf, just sent him back to the desert. He rubs his face, Epona, his horse, standing beside him, neighing softly and nudging at his hair. Link smiled at her and kissed her muzzle. He didn't actually know what's become of Ganondorf but whatever has happened mustn't have been good. Midna went back to her kingdom, Zelda was saved and Link was going back home. But he felt empty, he didn't have Navi anymore as she decided to stay with Zelda, Zelda didn't love Link like Link loved her and he knew things would get much more boring from here on out. Epona nudged him again and Link sighed, at least he still hand her, then got up and jumped onto Epona. Link and Epona slowly made their way home and as Link's "Tree House" came into view he sighed with relief, he jumped off Epona who slowly walked to her normal place where she stood originally, before Ganondorf happened, before Link was chosen as a Hero and before Midna ever made contact with him. Link slowly climbed the ladder to his door and opened it up, the moon high in the sky, he made his way to his bed and collapsed onto it, falling asleep almost instantly, his last waking thought before sleep claimed him. Did I just see a shadow move?
~Next day~
Link woke up with a wide yawn, looking out the window he realizes its well into the afternoon, he curses and quickly gets up, getting dressed in his old clothes, something OTHER then the normal green tunic that he always wore it seemed. He raced outside and into town, Epona neighing a 'good morning' to Link as he raced away. He ran to the town, everyone looking at him in shock, he grins to everyone as they all race to him, patting him on the back and hugging him. Lila runs to Link and practically tackles him.
"LINK WE MISSED YOU SO MUCH DON'T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN!" Link just chuckles and rubs her head, smiling at her kindly.
"I won't, I promise." He murmurs to her, making sure only she can hear him, she gets off him and he receives help up from Mayor Bo, who grins at him and rubs his back. "Tonight we shall celebrate for our young Hero's return!" He winced at the use of 'Hero' for he not only didn't ask for that title but he didn't WANT to be the Hero of Time in the first place, all his life he wanted to grow up, get married to Lila, have two children and be a simple farm boy, none of this 'Hero' crap. He went along with it anyways, however, the town had a feast and he ate tell he felt like he would pop, then watched as the sky exploded into shades of purple, green, pink, red, and so many other colors. People "oohed" and "aahed" at the colors. Link started to grow tired so he excused myself, hugged Lila and went on his way. On the way up to the house Link passed Epona, paused and went back to her to pet her; he gave her a carrot which he obtained by bugging Lila over and over again. Epona chewed on it lovingly; he laughed softly and nuzzled her muzzle softly.
"You only love me for the carrots, don't you?" Her only response was a nod so Link fake glared at her before climbing back to his house. He sighed happily and closed the door behind him, leaning back against it where a familiar voice met him.
"Hello Hero." Ganondorf said from the carpet on the floor.
